E-Paper displays have very high contrast and good daylight readability with a wide viewing angle,and usually,require no power to maintain the display once set.So they are well-suited to applications where display updates are infrequent.While some e-Paper displays can show colours,most are black and white only,although this limitation also results in good contrast and keeps the control scheme simple.We bought an e-Paper display,tested it out and wrote code to drive it from both an Arduino and Micromite.Read on to see if an e-Paper display is something you would like to add to your next project! How it works While there are variations to the technology,many displays are based on electrostatically charged coloured particles.Sometimes these are particles with one black side and one white side;in other cases,they are light particles suspended in a dark liquid.
